Shortlist chosen for “Unreal Awards: Experience Design” competition

It’s the moment we’ve all been waiting for: which entries are in the running to win the first ever Unreal Awards: Experience Design competition? Our quest to find and reward design innovators using Unreal Engine for architecture, manufacturing, and product design is reaching its closing stages, and the shortlist is in.

The winners are in line to share over $70,000 worth of prizes across the three categories, including cash awards and valuable bonuses from our generous sponsors: Allegorithmic, Esri, AXYZ design, and TurboSquid.

We’ve had a tough time narrowing down the field from some great entries, but we have made our selection. The following submissions have made our shortlist, but, to ensure complete fairness, we’ll be keeping their creators anonymous until judging is complete—so the only identifier here is their three-digit entry number.

Nominees in the Architecture category

Nominees in the Manufacturing category

Nominees in the Product Design category

We’d like to thank everyone who entered, and wish all of our shortlisted nominees the best of luck! Now it’s down to our esteemed panel of judges from Theia Interactive, IUAV Architecture University of Venice, Line Creative, Neoscape, Foster + Partners, State of Art Academy, and Allegorithmic to pick the winners, which will be announced the week of February 11 to 15, 2019. Stay tuned for that post, where we'll present the complete videos from each of our winners and runners-up.
